Ways to take a screenshot on a Mac computer

There are several ways to take a screenshot on a Mac computer:

  1. Keyboard Shortcuts: a. Capture the entire screen: Press Command + Shift + 3. b. Capture a specific window: Press Command + Shift + 4, then press the Spacebar and click on the window you want to capture. c. Capture a portion of the screen: Press Command + Shift + 4, then drag the crosshair cursor to select the area you want to capture.
  2. Preview: You can also use the Preview app to take a screenshot. Open Preview, go to File > Take Screenshot > and select the type of screenshot you want to take.
  3. Grab: Another option is to use the Grab app, which is pre-installed on all Macs. To use Grab, open it, go to File > New Screen Shot, and select the type of screenshot you want to take.

Note: The screenshots will be saved as PNG files on the desktop, unless you change the save location in the keyboard shortcut or in the app.
